1	Early Yes On Fire	I can't believe so many people have given this DVD one star. It's true the audio and video are not on par with more recent releases. It doesn't matter. This was filmed when Yes was a young band on the verge of international stardom, and they play like they are on fire. A great time capsule. If you're a Yes fan, or just a fan of great music, cough up the 8 bucks and enjoy.	positive
1	Out Of The Dust	I think this is a very thought provoking book. It really makes you think about how fortunate you are compared to those people. I am so glad that every evening when i eat dinner I don't have to worry about my dinner being covered with dust or whether the pepper is really pepper:0). It has some very sad parts, funny, and adventurous parts. It is not my favorite book though.	positive
1	Great camera for the price and outstanding customer service!	Polaroid's outstanding customer service makes this camera an excellent purchase. I received the camera in exchange for a less expensive, different model camera that had a defect. The exchange was made quickly and easily.The camera is easy to use and has more features than I expected from an inexpensive camera. Picture quality is better than one should expect from an inexpensive camera. At the highest resolution a picture can be zoomed to display excellent detail.Polaroid A500 5.1MP Digital Camera with 4x Digital Zoom	positive
1	Adorable and Helpful	I bought the Twilight Turtle for my 3 year old daughter, and we use it every night. The turtle itself is very cute, and the stars are bright and clear. I was surprised when I saw the negative reviews because we've had no problems with ours. My daughter absolutely loves it, and picking the color of the stars has become a nightly routine. We haven't gotten into looking at constellations yet, but it comes with a little star guide. I think it is fitting for a girl or a boy. Wonderful product.	positive
0	Really Didn't Like it	I've read Ms. Quick before (have almost all of her books)and this book is not up to her standards. The characters are annoying and dull. Lavinia, the lead female character, comes off as almost desperate and Tobias is arrogant and officious---I really disliked him.If you're interested in some great Amanda Quick novels, try "Surrender" or "Reckless" or "Scandal" or any other novel she wrote BEFORE she embarked on this detective series.	negative
1	Death Cave	I enjoyed reading Trapped in Death Cave. It is a mystery book and I like mysteries. Gary, Brian and Mrs. Becker get trapped in the cave by Odie Wilson, who wants the gold hidden there all to himself. Everyone thinks Mrs. Becker is a witch but when she ends up saving the lives of two boys they have a party for her. Then they close off the cave so no one will go back.I would recommend this book to kids under the age 12.	positive
0	Rip-off!	Garmin and Fodors should be ashamed of this product. The coverage is absurd. In Washington D.C. I looked for a restaurant near my current location. Nada, but I was surrounded by a wide variety of places to eat, some of them very highly rated by local media. This guide wanted me to go most of the way across town, an expensive cab ride, to a neighborhood that I was advised wasn't very safe. You're better off to Google the city before you visit and take along a few pages of printouts. Do not waste your money on this piece of garbage.	negative
0	Bluffer's stuff	I ordered the TANTUS BEGINNER PENIS RING, 2 inches size.Well, BEGINNER inwhat sense?? I would say the size is for extra large endowments. The product is ok (the quality) but the size is for porn stars..I'm experienced in cockrings, just didn't know the size, but this is a kind of turn down for beginners.	negative
1	september sacrifice	Enjoyed reading this book. Received in time from dealer. Would do business again. I like reading true crime books and like ordering from Amazon.	positive
0	Horrible!	I ordered this product, and the product key for Windows XP did not work. Amazon.com proceeded to tell me that they needed to ship me an entirely new shipment, rather than send me a valid product key. I recieved the new package, send the defective one back, and tried to install XP Professional. Upon installing the second time, the product hung at the license agreement. Do not buy this book. The only reson I bought the book was for the trial XP software, but I would like to have been sent a working copy!	negative
0	Orn on Kindle a Dismal Flop	A great book (worth 5 stars easily) is totally ruined by the formatting mistakes (or rather, lack of formatting) and the amazing number of misspelled words in it (thus the one star rating). Apparently, it was done by someone who doesn't know how to read or how to format sentences or paragraphs. Extremely disappointing. I hope Piers lays into whoever did this.	negative
0	Disappointing Fungus!	While I have no issues with the way my toothbrush functions, I'm incredibly grossed out with how dirty this unit becomes. Because the vibrating head and the body of the toothbrush come apart, it allows water to collect in between those two pieces. Once I discovered that the inside of my toothbrush was a hot bed of fungal growth, I started rinsing it out after every use. This seems to do little to stop the mildew. I'm on a plan now that I dump a little bit of bleach inside the receptacle once a week and scrub with Q-tips. I can't believe that there is such an obvious design flaw. If fungus on your toothbrush doesn't bother you, then go ahead...it's a good deal. I, however, have stopped using this because it's such a nuisance.	negative
0	Give me a break!	If it wasn't for the scandals in the White House created by both Slick Willy and the Wicked Witch, they wouldn't have diddly to write about. The lies in both these books is about par for them. No way can I begin to imagine Slick Willy sleeping on the couch for two months after his heartbreaking confession to Hilly about Monica. Billy Boy used every bed in the place for everything else, why not sleep in one! Just like Hilly stating that they ate leftovers in the private residence that she herself had cooked. Who the hell do they think they're kidding....oh yeah, the liberal left. This book should definitely be found in fine bookstores under the pure fantasy section!	negative
0	Poorly assembled notepads	While the paper quality is reasonable for recycled material (it has the consistency of newsprint), the pages are not properly perforated. It is impossible to cleanly remove sheets from these pads without tearing your notes. Unless you intend to leave the pages bound together, find another pad.	negative
1	Sherlock Holmes A New Slueth For The 21st Century	This entertaining dvd contains three episodes:1. A Study In Pink - a dead woman wearing pink is found and Sherlock Holmes solves the mystery.2. The Blind Banker - a banker is murdered and Holmes gets the killer.3. The Great Game - various murders take place and yet again, Holmes solves the mystery.Admittingly, this took a little getting used to since I have seen so many of the Basil Rathbone movies. The new actors are entertaining, though, and I did enjoy the three episodes.Will be interesting to see if another season will be produced.In the meantime, watch and enjoy the newest edition of Sherlock Holmes.Recommended.	positive
0	Broke in 2 weeks	This is essentially the "Vidalia chop wizard".As many others have stated, the hinges are a weakness with this item. Mine broke within 2 weeks, while chopping quartered onions.My wife tried to contact the manufacturer for a replacement (we got this as a gift), but their website offers no details about returns/replacements, warranty, etc.	negative
0	Famous for failure	This POS has been nothing but headaches. For some dumb reason we have kept it around as a backup but rarely use it (and when we need to, it doesn't work, often needing printheads replaced where it lives on for a very short while). It is one of the least reliable pieces of hardware I've ever owned. Do a Google search for 'D135 Scanner Failure'. Not worth it even if receiving unit free as a gift. Printer heads, ink costs are astronomical and unit will fail in very short order. Avoid like the plague.	negative
1	Erasure DVD Mistake	My prior comment on this DVD was meant for the Erasure: Sanctuary Christmas Concert 2002 DVD. I was writing this for that DVD and accidentally entered for the Solsbury Hill DVD. Amazon use to sell the Erasure: Sanctuary DVD, but not sure why they dont now. I bought my copy at http://www.mute.co.uk/store.htmSorry for the Inconvenience this may have caused.	positive
1	Stethoscope	Excellent product, excellent service. I was in my hands before the date that was promised. I recommend this product to any one.	positive
1	polder dish rack	I was getting tired of my old dish rack and decided to try out this little stainless steel rack based on the reviews from everybody,...it holds a lot more dishes and utensils than you would ever imagin based on it's size when you first open the box it comes in.i added some stick on plastic pads on the bottom of the tray to keep it off of counter to prevent marring of the tiles and to promote drying.i would not hesitate to reconmend this rack to anyone looking for a small compact unit.it's a cutie.	positive
0	Stop yelling at me and get to the point	I was so disappointed in this CD. I felt like I was getting yelled at the entire time and I just kept waiting for her to get to something of substance. Setting the sarcasm and condesenstion aside, she spent most of the time ranting and babbling. I was determined to stick with the CDs, sure there had to be substance from the great Caroline Myss. She did finally get to some substance on the second CD track 11 but it certainly wasn't worth enduring the verbal abuse.Save your $ and find a more uplifting and instructive author.	negative
1	Great Covered Baking Pan	I love this 13 X 9 baking pan. It bakes my cakes perfectly and the clean up is a breeze. Love the cover! It is hard to find a good cake pan with a cover. I own many other Wilton pans and they are a must have in the kitchen!Great quality pans!	positive
0	ID clip	ID clip keeps falling off and my ID tag separates from the latch. Not a great product. Look elsewhere. Waste of money	negative
0	Please	When this book first was about to come out I was waiting with so much excitement only to be diappointed... too orientalist for my tastes...	negative
1	Written in a small office late at night!!!	WOW! Grant has done the impossibe, combine dead people, dead presidents and dead space into an amazing journey, and fit it into a nice readable thing made out of paper. If you read between the lines in the book you think you see nothing, but look again, and there is a world in a world. Grant could make the life of a third shift security guard seem as important as the President of the United States. This book makes you feel important, no matter who or what you do. I could not write the alphabet to save my life, but Grant sure does a good job for me.Buy and you will like not only the book, but yourself!!!	positive
1	Good Stuff.	This isn't the normal SK freakshow kind of book. It's a real story about the rough life of a hardworking mother. I liked it, new is good, although he kind of spent 2 pgs. too long on one topic. Altogether it would be worth your money. Dolores is one heck of a woman. =D	positive
1	FANTASTIC!	LOVE IT !! You won't believe how much food fits in this - makes taking your lunch with you SO easy and FUN!! Also bought the stainless steel chopsticks - what a pair!!	positive
1	Great classic	This CD is a great classic. I purchased it as a birthday present for my husband. I know he will just love it.	positive
1	Pretty Good For the First DVD . . . .	I am a big Simpsons fan. This DVD provides helpful insight on the first season of The Simpsons. It has all thirteen episodes from season one, and has other special features included as well. The reason I give it four stars is because the extra features aren't that great. But I liked the rest of the DVD. If you are a Simpsons fan, then you should definetly add this DVD to your collection.	positive
0	The Blind Programmer	Don't be seduced by Pinkermania; he's trapped in a little box and he won't be taking a look around anytime soon. Edward Oaks couldn't have said it better in his review:http://www.firstthings.com/ftissues/ft9803/articles/oakes.html	negative
0	superficial......	This book is superficial. Trying to make out much from little. Yet how can one milk a thin book that much? Also, iUniverse is really having something wrong with bounding. The books from it are not solid enough.	negative
0	Bad magnet mount and Fragile glass	I bought this and calibrated it using the salt method and it was way off initially (read around 50% instead of 75%). After getting it calibrated and installing inside the lid of my humidor, I was happy with the product. Then after about a month, I opened the humidor to find that the hygrometer had fallen off of the place I mounted it. The metal disk that that was attached to the back of the hygrometer and holds it to the magnet mount (which I attached to the lid of the humidor) had detached from the hygrometer. When I tried to press it back on to the rear of hygrometer to secure it again, the evidently very thin glass on the front shattered.The item would have been fine if the metal disk that holds it to the magnet wouldn't have fallen off so easily. Mounting a hygrometer inside the lid of the humidor is a pretty standard thing to do, so for that use I can't recommend this product.	negative
0	Worst book ever	This is the worst Crichton book I've ever read. The characters seem to become hollow in the middle of the plot, which is like a bad chapter of the X-files.	negative
0	Review	Poor performance. For as efficient as the grinder attachement is, this thing really let me down. The ground sausage is nearly impossible to force through this.	negative
0	Probably not what you're expecting...	If you're expecting a nice, concise introduction to the Spartans, you will be very disappointed with this book. As most reviewers have stated below, Cartledge is clearly an authority on the subject...it's his writing style that is at issue.It's a bad sign when a history nut (me), with a particular affinity for Mediterranean culture, is unable/unwilling to finish a book of this brevity. Maddeningly confusing, and, in my opinion, totally unreadable.	negative
0	A Big Let Down	6 February 2003I just finished reading "The Christmas Train" and I must say that this novel was a huge disappointment - it lacked everything that we readers have been expecting from a Baldacci Novel. Raw energy, fizz, suspense, intricate plotting and deft characterisation. I am one of his ardent admirers and therefore the disappointment is more acute. This novel must rank as a dud amongst his novels so far.Hope his coming novel shall prove that "The Christmas Train" was an aberration. Intelligent writers like Mr.Baldacci are far and few in between.Please don't disappoint the readers again.Regards:R.S.Bivalkar	negative
1	Great Book!	Look people, this is an AWSOME BOOK!!! The characters WERE WELL-DELOPED, and I liked the way Kim tried to become a lady. The 1st one was better in my opinion, but this book was still awsome!	positive
0	Oh Well.....	I don't want to say that this album is COMPLETE garbage, because that would be unfair to the session musicians who played on it and seem to be pretty competent. Also, to those who complain that the BSBs don't play their own instruments, neither did the Temptations, but I wouldn't hold it against THEM. The thing is that after hearing the singles off this album one thing is for certain: used record stores in college towns are going to be inundated with freshmen trying to dump their copies of this CD.	negative
0	Puts me asleep after five minutes.	This movie is really drawn out. I wish it wasn't because Daredevil is one of my favorite comics. Ben Affleck is horrible as always. Colin Farrell is horrible as Bullseye. His carrer is going down the drain after this and Alexander. Jennifer Garner is ok as Elecktra, I expected more from her. The only character I liked wasn't even in the movie only in the director's cut. Coolio is funny as the man on trial and has a funny line in it. Joe Pantoliano is also good as the reporter. But they can't save a bad movie that was bad enough already.	negative
0	What a dull book!	Since the couple are already married, and have already made love, there is none of the tension involved in a genuine romance. She learns to change herself to be worthy of him, the supposed villains get their comeuppance, and the whole issue of her having been raped repeatedly for seven months by a Spanish partisan is swept under the carpet neatly. The whole lost identity and found father is just absurd and the long long cast of characters and the maiden auntie's romance thrown in for good measure is just dull. These characters all look as though they are intended for spins offs, we get so much detail, but the essence of romance is the couple meeting and falling in love. Not knowing her for 4 years and marrying her to protect her virtue, then losing her on the battle field and forgetting she ever existed until she turns up again. There is no sensuality or joy in this book and the hero and heroine are both spineless.	negative
0	not as good as her other works	I've read all of Tan's writing's and I was dissapointed with this book.I usually cruise through a novel in less than a week and it took me three weeks to get through this one.Everyone has a bad day sometime.	negative
1	Thermoscan Review	I absolutely love my Thermoscan thermometer. Before I sarted using it my daugher would start crying when she saw me coming with the old thermometer because we always had to do it rectally. With the Thermoscan she wants me to use it even when she's not sick.	positive
1	Great Hatchet	Buy it. It's the best hatchet I've owned. Sharp as a razor and light as a feather. Strong, durable.	positive
0	From Decent to Bad	I found the first half of Grave's book enjoying and convincing in using scientific analysis to make his point that race doesn't really exist in humans. He then takes that premise and goes nowhere with it while describing the ills of the myth. The scientific part of his reasoning wanes as he goes more and more into the socio-political aspects of our society.Credibility turned to incredibility as his pick and choose logic and statistics became more prevalent. He complains that before present day affirmative action, whites had it, but it was called something else and criticizes it. Fine, but he then goes on to support affirmative action. After convincing me that race is a myth, he himself subsequently claims that churches are "racially segregated". I would have appreciated more on solutions than beratement of well known inequalities.But who is to say, it may be that the 4 enlightning statements that I got out of the entire last half of the book may end up being worthwhile.	negative
1	Great!	I bought this for my fiance for his birthday and he loves it! I would definitely recommend it for die hard Rob and Big fans!	positive
0	mach 3 turbo	The shipment of the 16 blades was defective. All the blades were old, made in Germany and were very dull. I was unable to use them and had to return them for credit. Amazon credited my account for the blades but failed to credit me for the freight.	negative
0	Boring Boxes	A collection of unimaginative dwelling units and galleries, which show the architect's inability to think beyond the box. Failing to grasp the complexities and juxtapositions of modern society, Mr. Fisher's architecture quickly dissapears into the unsightly bowels of banal coffee table literature (on a good day).	negative
0	Don't bother buying this thing.	I bought this electronic gadget, and it work flawlessly for about 3 weeks. Then, It just stop working, and I'm stuck with a piece of you know what, instead of music coming trough my radio from my mp3 player.I'll better buy a cable, it works better and for a longer time.	negative
1	Silver Rose Anthology	i only gave this book 5 stars because i could not give it more. i went to a reading of one of the writers and soon went on to read the rest. it has a good mix of voices, but by far the best writer is Heidi Shayla and her story "The Coffin Builder's Romance", it is a beautiful story of quilts, boxes, and of course, coffins. it is my all time favorite anthology, and i would definetly recomend it.	positive
0	Not Enchanted	Worked ok for first couple of weeks. I think i am going to have to return it. That positioning sensor is very difficult to get just right. I'm disapointed, I delibertly shopped for Omron because I have other Omron products and they work just fine.Zondra Brownlee	negative
0	Great product! Lousy Price!	Amazon should be ashamed for selling this excellent product for such an outrageous price. I assumed I was ordering a dozen, but instead received a single, lonely ball in a huge box.Pros: No complaints about the quality of the product.Cons: $37 for one ball?????? I returned the ONE BALL and bought one dozen from another vendor for $35.	negative
0	wouldn't recommend	Poorly written, terrible prose,vulgar language that I wouldn't expect anybody to enjoy. Many mistakes and typos.Can't imagine why Amazon would put this book out there for people to reead	negative
1	Musical nostalgia	This is a lovely way to voyage down memory lane in brief snippets from many wonderful films. If you can't afford to have all of their movies in your library, what better way to enjoy the elegance of Fred Astaire or the athleticism of Gene Kelly; or to tune in to Katheryn Grayson or Judy Garland or so many fine performers. I had seen the first two of these films, but I really love having the whole collection, and I'm sure I'll be enjoying all of these discs many times over!	positive
0	Pretty Pictures, but not a very useful tool	As with other reviewers, this isn't for someone that has been playing long enough to have a char in thier 50's. You won't be blind to zone layout, but it doesn't help you get to a specfic location because you can't really tell WHERE that location is.Buy if for looks, but if you need maps that are worth using in game, just print them from the internet.	negative
0	Incomplete and mis-leading account.	As a veteran of the Persian Gulf Crisis assigned to the 1st Armored Division I was to say the least disappointed with a book that is more fiction and rumor than fact. The account of what went on in my helicopter on a Special Foces extraction mission amazed me in its inaccuracy and fill in the blank yellow jounalism since I was the pilot in command and was never interviewed by this supposedly accurate historian. I can only surmise that Mr. Carhart got around this by butchering the spelling of my name. I belive that the author used this technique in the whole book and it should be classified as fiction and sold with subscriptions to the National Enquirer. CW3 Robert A. Caprara	negative
0	Do not waste your money	I bought the PUR 2-Stage Vertical White Faucet Mount FM-3333B about 2 months ago. It was easy to install and worked right away. However, that didn't last long. The amount of water coming out of the filtered side slowed down quite rapidly. Barely two months after installing it, there is hardly any water coming out. The filter has an indicator that is supposed to flash green when the filter cartridge is good, and changes color to orange or red when it's time to change it. Mine didn't even get to that point and it stopped working. I never ran hot water through the filter which is a warning that came in the instructions. This is just very poorly constructed. This product was cheap, and worked cheaply. Don't waste your money. Make some more research and instead, buy a quality product that will work.	negative
1	Refreshing encounter with a great mind	Dewey's philosophy is hard for some people to get into, or take seriously, because his whole body of concerns and ideas are present behind every sentence-- so, even though his language is plain-spoken, it is "saturated with meaning," to use one of his phrases. So it takes real work, and he doesn't always succeed in keeping the foreground clear, while remembering the background. It's DOING philosophy, rather than merely writing ABOUT it. This book is a great example -- what does philosophy do for us, how does it contribute when it is woven into the other enterprises of life, and what ideas in philosophy stand it the way of its making a living contribution. The book is full of dramatic, and even radical thinking, but in quiet, reflective language that requires relaxed, persistent attention.	positive
0	Textless photo essay, for Route 66 completists only	This slim volume isn't really a book. It's a totally textless (not even captions) photo gallery taken by Mr. Baker along Route 66. In addition to the "roadside" images of motels, travelers and scenery one might expect in a Route 66 photo essay, there are several pointless photos of images on TV screens, and at least two too many shots of roadkill. This book is no substitute for driving the highway -- or even for looking over the photo album of a friend who's driven Route 66.	negative
0	not great kids book	My boys (ages 10, 9, 7, 5) and I found this book to be dull. We love history, but this one was lacking. It also had several instances of profanity which was surprising to me for a book that I thought was aimed at kids.	negative
1	Wonderful Product! A Life-Saver!!!	I really love this product! I wanted to find something to keep the litter box odors down since I have 4 cats and they do not use hooded litter boxes. I decided to try this product and I'm glad I did. I use a large regular plastic litter pan, put a regular bag liner on it, and place the wonderbox inside as a hard liner. It is much easier to scoop the clumps off the side (they don't stick like they do to the plastic pan or liner by itself). Also, I do not have to worry about ripping the plastic liner with the scooper. The litter box odors have decreased 99% since using the Wonderbox and my cats don't even notice it is there. The best part is when I want to totally clean the litter box, I just take the plastic liner and wonder box out and replace. No scrubbing the dirty pan!! The price may seem a bit steep, but it is worth it since each liner lasts a month. Try this product and you will be glad you did!	positive
1	Not 100% cotton	I thought "batiste" meant thin cotton, but this nightgown is cotton/poly and stiffer and less soft than I'd hoped. Still the fit is nice, and it's pretty, and it was certainly inexpensive! So all in all, I'm happy....	positive
1	Father on Fire	If you've ever wondered what early Rollins spoken word is like, this is a good place to start.More like poetry, the first part of this release is Rollins in rare form. Raw, brutal and funny -- it's easy to see why he rubs some people the wrong way.The instrumental pieces on the release are standard Black Flag, only not as frantic. It's like all the fire had been taken out of the band, but it somehow fits the overall package.This is definitely not the best Black Flag release, and may only be for completists, but it is worth listening to if only to get a taste of early Rollins.	positive
1	Learning to Count to Five	The Sesame Street, People in My Family, A golden Shape Book, is great for toddlers. The text counts up to five three times, first with family members, then with monsters(the Sesame Street kind), and then with fingers on each hand. There are lots of things to count in the pictures too, balloons, hats, spools of ribbon and more.	positive
1	Underwear	My daughter's class read this book and the teacher told me that she was so hysterical because she couldn't stop laughing. I decided this was a book we needed to own and it is a very funny book that kids will love to have read to them.	positive
1	Grace in full voice	The music here is sometimes draggy and repetitive. The arrangements are overwrought in high prog-rock style. The lyrics don't quite make sense. And none of that matters one bit.This is Grace Slick at the peak of her vocal achievement. She has reached the vocal power that her Jefferson Airplane work only hinted at, and she is not the sad shell of her former self that is heard on the later Starship albums. Her singing ranks up with the great female forces of nature. That's enough to make this album a must-have.	positive
1	Great Product	I really like these headphones.Pros: Good base as well as execelent trebble response, lightweight, comfortable for several hours and so far durableCons: They do not fold (well the ear pads fold sideways to keep from breaking the speakers when stored), the plug that goes into the player comes out striaght up and does not bend at a 90 degree. This can be annoying when working out or walking as the cord sticks into your side if placed on your belt.I would have given these 5 stars excecpt for the plug's poor design.	positive
0	Don't Bother!	I bought this for my elderly mother who lives in assisted living because she and her friends have trouble shuflingcards. The first one I bought didn't work at all so I returned it and received a replacement. The replacement broke after just two days. This product is cheap and I would not bother purchasing it. I will say that Amazon made the returns and refund back to my account easy. That was the only positive.	negative
1	Very interesting	Something about the way that this book is written gives me a soothing feeling. I begin reading and feel at peace somehow.	positive
0	The product failed after one week	the failed product was returned on Dec. 26th, but the company has not yet sent me the replacement	negative
0	Boring	I would not reccomend this book. It was very boring and I didn't find much of a purpose. The end was the best part, but it was still bad. l did not get into this book or enjoy it. it was for school.	negative
0	Should be the 100 sales questions	Although redundancy helps you remember the point, the title is misleading. It is more like 100 questions and 3 or more ways to ask the same question. (maybe I'm being unfair....it may be 101, but it may only be 98 as well).Best for the salesperson who is in a slump, a s it's a nice refresher. May not be helpful to a newbie, who needs more confidence than robotics.	negative
0	Can't figure it out	I moved into a cubicle that already has a 3M C-71 desk drawer organizer in the drawer. I cannot, for the life of me, figure out how the tape dispenser works. It says to refill with Scotch brand 810 Magic Tape, and I understand that that tape comes with two different core sizes (1" and 3"), however, even with the 1" core tape, the snap-on lid won't snap closed and then the drawer can't close. Aside from that, it's an okay organizer, but I just can't figure out to use the tape dispenser.	negative
1	delightful christmas movie	this movie is funny and heart warming. a little different take on this movie, which is a welcome change for this time of the year movie. a feel good christmas movie.	positive
1	ipod 8gb nano	I'm very satisfied in purchasing this item. The followings are the features that I really like;* Very slim in dimensions* Light wieght* Long battery life* Sound clarity* Friendly to use* Affordable price* Clear display* Has plenty of accessoriesIt's simply the best music player I ever had.	positive
1	Report Fom Ground Zero: The Story of Rescue Efforta at the World Trade Centre	Dennis Smith , a retired FDNY reported to Manhatten's Ladder Company #11 on the morning that fateful morning of Septermber 11, 2001...Besides being a real fireman, Dennis is a talented writer and in the 366 pages exposes the reader to an absorbing account of the experienced horror & the heroism of New York's First Responders ..You won't want to put it down until the last page !	positive
0	a bit dissappointed	As our system runs on propane we have utilized space heaters over the years to work in unicen in order to save a little on the process and money spent on refilling our propane tank, i decided this year to spend a little more and buy a better or more diverse space heater, the bionaire looked and read to be a decent buy for the qualities, however i feel that saving the money and going with a regular unit for less money, reasons: the unit comes on and off constantly in order to maintain the exact temperature,a bit annoying when trying to rest, cannot change. The high low setting is indistinguishable, and just one month in and the unit seems loose in pivot and makes clatter sounds when shutting down like the fan or motor have bad bearings or setup, as well switches click when coming on and going off unnecessarily noisy. Likes: removable filter for cleaning, ionization, and no bright lights except when programing.	negative
0	Not even remotely professional grade.	I'm a wedding photographer. Picked up an additional D700 to go along with my other D700 & primes. Figured I would give a mid-zoom a shot. Well I did and Amazon just received my return. This lens was TERRIBLE!!!!!!!! The auto focus was the SLOWEST I have ever experienced on ANY lens. The image quality & bokeh were nice, if you could get it focus on the point you wanted. I had to make a +20 adjustment in my camera just to get the focus on point. I refused to even bring this lens with me to a wedding for fear of missing every shot. I have since picked up the Nikon (Nikkor) 24-70 f/2.8 as my mid zoom and THAT LENS is SPECTACULAR! Highly recommend no one waste their time on this lens unless your shooting still subjects in a laid back environment.	negative
1	Life, as viewed through an amber colored bottle...	This is an incredibly hard edged, raw collection of poems from an obviously difficult time in Mr. Easton's life. Even through the haze of alcohol and/or drugs, he still felt the pull of the written and spoken word, and was able to project that life to us in an eloquent, albiet blunt, way. I truly hope to see more poems from Mr. Easton, this time from a perhaps more sober and introspective view. My favorites are Poem 37, Pictures, Tantalus and Love Letter. Bravo, Mr. Easton, and thank you.(A word of warning - the rawness and crude language of many of the poems are not for everyone, please keep that in mind. Even still, it's a great book of poetry and may remind many of their youthful party days).	positive

This text is easy for me to understand and givesgreat detail on how to do all the procedures needed to create great videos.I highly recommend Final Cut Pro 5 by Diana Weynand, whether you are a begninner orif you are well versed in the program. After the initial tutorial material is covered,it will make a great reference manual.	positive

1	Plain presentation but excellent content	This authors books are generally very drab in appearance. Having said that the author is one of the premier experts on all sorts of guitars -not just the strat. There is a huge wealth of detail in this book and its a must have for the strat lover. Compared to this author, Tony Bacon pumps out glossy and superficial books by the absolute bucket load, and I know because I own most of them! And Bacons books are cool in their own way. This book is not fancy, but its 100% solid and authentic. The author of this Hal Leonard title is an electric guitar scholar, as it were, and dwarfs most other writers in this area. Buy it and be thankful. Buy it used, and be even happier.Also: this book does not cover strat developments for the past 10 years. Thats not a flaw in the book; its an old title. But what this book DOES cover it handles with skill and ease and depth.	positive
1	My copy is orange with highlighted phrases.	Forever, I've had the habit of highlighting poignant phrases in whatever I read. Now, after reading Feather in the Wind, my copy is practically orange with highlights. This book is chock full of interesting and profound, unusual and touching literary jewels. For instance, on page 139, "He screamed. It was a cry more wild, more mournful and lonesome than that of any wolf, and it pierced the night air and roamed the dark countryside in unrequited pursuit of an answering call." Doesn't that grab you?Author J.D.H. Duncan definitely has a way with words and expressions that sets him apart. This romance novel provokes both tears and laughter as it takes you through the incredible trials and tribulations of an ordinary man living an extraordinary life of pain and love all mixed up with humor and hope and lessons in life. Just read the book, and don't forget your highlighter pencil!	positive
1	Magical !	This series has brought me back to episodic television. No computers solving all the cases, no women swooning over the leading man. On the contrary, we have a lovable but not likable guy that seems crippled by fear of everything. We have detection being done by a detective, what a concept. I like these early episodes that show Sharona having to get Monk to focus on the case, not his other obsessions, which are many. This is old fashioned, but entertaining. I appreciate the way the dics are set up and you can choose to watch all episodes continually, or pick a selection.	positive

0	Cheaply made, just pass on this one.	Swim Ways Pool Lounge:Purchased this locally, brought it home, and immediately saw the poor quality. The arms are HOLLOW, can't support a 140 pound person level. Your feet wind up in the air much higher than the rest of you. If you sit too far back (as you should) there is a tendency to flip it over. Had they used solid arms instead of the hollowed arms, MAYBE it would work properly. In addition, the metal support system doesn't go all the way around. It is only two U shaped tubes that don't meet at the other end of the other U shape tubing. The body support is very flimsy and doesn't stay in place.I would not recommend this to ANYONE at any price. It doesn't perform what it was intended for. You will be disappointed.I returned mine the very next morning.Santa Cruz Lounge	negative

0	Can split at seams	This is a nice seat -- so comfy my 18-mo-old can use and stable enough that the 3yo also loves it. The handles offer added security for early potty use. We bought two of these to have on eat each toilet. However, the less-used one recently split at the seams! Sadly it's past the return date.The two-piece design is terrific for trapping urine in the little grooves and also the cushy ring often slips off when this is hung up in the bathroom since you have to hang it by one of the little handles.My parents bought theMommy's Helper Contoured Cushie Tushie Potty Seatand I think it's much comfier, much easier to clean AND it's only $10. Oh, and it also has a hook that makes it super easy for the child to hang it up after use. I'd recommend that one instead.	negative

The book explains the development of the schooner type boat from the eariest settlements in America to its final usage in the 20th century as a common carrier on the Cheasapeake Bay and the high seas. You also learn of some of the people that sailed on these craft, how they were used in time of war and how a few (too few) have survived and are being sailed with passangers today. Anyone interested in wooden boats, sailing or the maritine history of the Chesapeake and the Eastern United States will enjoy this book. It is well researched and well written.	positive

0	OK Product...for a while	When I first received this locator it worked fine. You can use its directionality to find where the source is. However, after a few months the button required more pressure to work. Then it later required mashing it very hard and then it wouldn't always work. Eventually I opened it up to find the battery would not make contact unless it the entire circuit board was out of the case and the battery was slid partially out of the holder, but the case wouldn't allow it to stay in that position. ONE of two batteries, I think. It's been a while.Anyway, it works when it wants to.	negative
0	Patronising drivel	A very patronising look at Rebecca, a young Maori woman in the 1960's and what she does with her day. Black and white photos, mostly photos with not much text. Not a book you'd use to gain a proper understanding of Maori people and customs in the 60's.Rebecca for example wears a trendy 60's beehive, the people go to dances in the hall, and a white wedding -this book is more like a European look at the 1960's in New Zealand with Maori playing role models for the photos. Worst is the captions with the photos, here are some examples:-Yes, Maoris are happy people-Who cares about fancy clothes, we still have lots of fun-You find Maoris everywhere... in workshops, driving trains, in dairy factories...Oh please!Do yourself a favour and throw this book in the fire	negative

Early Yes On Fire

I can't believe so many people have given this DVD one star. It's true the audio and video are not on par with more recent releases. It doesn't matter. This was filmed when Yes was a young band on the verge of international stardom, and they play like they are on fire. A great time capsule. If you're a Yes fan, or just a fan of great music, cough up the 8 bucks and enjoy.

It has some very sad parts, funny, and adventurous parts. It is not my favorite book though.

Polaroid's outstanding customer service makes this camera an excellent purchase. I received the camera in exchange for a less expensive, different model camera that had a defect. The exchange was made quickly and easily.The camera is easy to use and has more features than I expected from an inexpensive camera. Picture quality is better than one should expect from an inexpensive camera.

Adorable and Helpful

I bought the Twilight Turtle for my 3 year old daughter, and we use it every night. The turtle itself is very cute, and the stars are bright and clear. I was surprised when I saw the negative reviews because we've had no problems with ours. My daughter absolutely loves it, and picking the color of the stars has become a nightly routine. We haven't gotten into looking at constellations yet, but it comes with a little star guide. I think it is fitting for a girl or a boy. Wonderful product.

Really Didn't Like it

I've read Ms. Quick before (have almost all of her books)and this book is not up to her standards. The characters are annoying and dull. Lavinia, the lead female character, comes off as almost desperate and Tobias is arrogant and officious---I really disliked him.If you're interested in some great Amanda Quick novels, try "Surrender" or "Reckless" or "Scandal" or any other novel she wrote BEFORE she embarked on this detective series.

Death Cave

I enjoyed reading Trapped in Death Cave. It is a mystery book and I like mysteries. Gary, Brian and Mrs. Becker get trapped in the cave by Odie Wilson, who wants the gold hidden there all to himself. Everyone thinks Mrs. Becker is a witch but when she ends up saving the lives of two boys they have a party for her. Then they close off the cave so no one will go back.I would recommend this book to kids under the age 12.

Rip-off!

Garmin and Fodors should be ashamed of this product. The coverage is absurd. In Washington D.C. I looked for a restaurant near my current location. Nada, but I was surrounded by a wide variety of places to eat, some of them very highly rated by local media. This guide wanted me to go most of the way across town, an expensive cab ride, to a neighborhood that I was advised wasn't very safe. You're better off to Google the city before you visit and take along a few pages of printouts. Do not waste your money on this piece of garbage.

Orn on Kindle a Dismal Flop

A great book (worth 5 stars easily) is totally ruined by the formatting mistakes (or rather, lack of formatting) and the amazing number of misspelled words in it (thus the one star rating). Apparently, it was done by someone who doesn't know how to read or how to format sentences or paragraphs. Extremely disappointing. I hope Piers lays into whoever did this.

Disappointing Fungus!

While I have no issues with the way my toothbrush functions, I'm incredibly grossed out with how dirty this unit becomes. Because the vibrating head and the body of the toothbrush come apart, it allows water to collect in between those two pieces. Once I discovered that the inside of my toothbrush was a hot bed of fungal growth, I started rinsing it out after every use. This seems to do little to stop the mildew. I'm on a plan now that I dump a little bit of bleach inside the receptacle once a week and scrub with Q-tips. I can't believe that there is such an obvious design flaw. If fungus on your toothbrush doesn't bother you, then go ahead...it's a good deal. I, however, have stopped using this because it's such a nuisance.

Give me a break!

If it wasn't for the scandals in the White House created by both Slick Willy and the Wicked Witch, they wouldn't have diddly to write about. The lies in both these books is about par for them. No way can I begin to imagine Slick Willy sleeping on the couch for two months after his heartbreaking confession to Hilly about Monica. Billy Boy used every bed in the place for everything else, why not sleep in one! Just like Hilly stating that they ate leftovers in the private residence that she herself had cooked. Who the hell do they think they're kidding....oh yeah, the liberal left. This book should definitely be found in fine bookstores under the pure fantasy section!

Sherlock Holmes A New Slueth For The 21st Century

This entertaining dvd contains three episodes:1. A Study In Pink - a dead woman wearing pink is found and Sherlock Holmes solves the mystery.2. The Blind Banker - a banker is murdered and Holmes gets the killer.3. The Great Game - various murders take place and yet again, Holmes solves the mystery.Admittingly, this took a little getting used to since I have seen so many of the Basil Rathbone movies. The new actors are entertaining, though, and I did enjoy the three episodes.Will be interesting to see if another season will be produced.In the meantime, watch and enjoy the newest edition of Sherlock Holmes.Recommended.

Famous for failure

This POS has been nothing but headaches. For some dumb reason we have kept it around as a backup but rarely use it (and when we need to, it doesn't work, often needing printheads replaced where it lives on for a very short while). It is one of the least reliable pieces of hardware I've ever owned. Do a Google search for 'D135 Scanner Failure'. Not worth it even if receiving unit free as a gift. Printer heads, ink costs are astronomical and unit will fail in very short order. Avoid like the plague.

Stop yelling at me and get to the point

I was so disappointed in this CD. I felt like I was getting yelled at the entire time and I just kept waiting for her to get to something of substance. Setting the sarcasm and condesenstion aside, she spent most of the time ranting and babbling. I was determined to stick with the CDs, sure there had to be substance from the great Caroline Myss. She did finally get to some substance on the second CD track 11 but it certainly wasn't worth enduring the verbal abuse.Save your $ and find a more uplifting and instructive author.

WOW! Grant has done the impossibe, combine dead people, dead presidents and dead space into an amazing journey, and fit it into a nice readable thing made out of paper. If you read between the lines in the book you think you see nothing, but look again, and there is a world in a world. Grant could make the life of a third shift security guard seem as important as the President of the United States. This book makes you feel important, no matter who or what you do. I could not write the alphabet to save my life, but Grant sure does a good job for me.Buy and you will like not only the book, but yourself!!!

If you are a Simpsons fan, then you should definetly add this DVD to your collection.

Bad magnet mount and Fragile glass

I bought this and calibrated it using the salt method and it was way off initially (read around 50% instead of 75%). After getting it calibrated and installing inside the lid of my humidor, I was happy with the product. Then after about a month, I opened the humidor to find that the hygrometer had fallen off of the place I mounted it. The metal disk that that was attached to the back of the hygrometer and holds it to the magnet mount (which I attached to the lid of the humidor) had detached from the hygrometer. When I tried to press it back on to the rear of hygrometer to secure it again, the *evidently very thin* glass on the front shattered.The item would have been fine if the metal disk that holds it to the magnet wouldn't have fallen off so easily. Mounting a hygrometer inside the lid of the humidor is a pretty standard thing to do, so for that use I can't recommend this product.

Probably not what you're expecting...

If you're expecting a nice, concise introduction to the Spartans, you will be very disappointed with this book. As most reviewers have stated below, Cartledge is clearly an authority on the subject...it's his writing style that is at issue.It's a bad sign when a history nut (me), with a particular affinity for Mediterranean culture, is unable/unwilling to finish a book of this brevity. Maddeningly confusing, and, in my opinion, totally unreadable.

A Big Let Down

6 February 2003I just finished reading "The Christmas Train" and I must say that this novel was a huge disappointment - it lacked everything that we readers have been expecting from a Baldacci Novel. Raw energy, fizz, suspense, intricate plotting and deft characterisation. I am one of his ardent admirers and therefore the disappointment is more acute. This novel must rank as a dud amongst his novels so far.Hope his coming novel shall prove that "The Christmas Train" was an aberration. Intelligent writers like Mr.Baldacci are far and few in between.Please don't disappoint the readers again.Regards:R.S.Bivalkar

The thing is that after hearing the singles off this album one thing is for certain: used record stores in college towns are going to be inundated with freshmen trying to dump their copies of this CD.

Puts me asleep after five minutes.

This movie is really drawn out. I wish it wasn't because Daredevil is one of my favorite comics. Ben Affleck is horrible as always. Colin Farrell is horrible as Bullseye. His carrer is going down the drain after this and Alexander. Jennifer Garner is ok as Elecktra, I expected more from her. The only character I liked wasn't even in the movie only in the director's cut. Coolio is funny as the man on trial and has a funny line in it. Joe Pantoliano is also good as the reporter. But they can't save a bad movie that was bad enough already.

What a dull book!

Since the couple are already married, and have already made love, there is none of the tension involved in a genuine romance. She learns to change herself to be worthy of him, the supposed villains get their comeuppance, and the whole issue of her having been raped repeatedly for seven months by a Spanish partisan is swept under the carpet neatly. The whole lost identity and found father is just absurd and the long long cast of characters and the maiden auntie's romance thrown in for good measure is just dull. These characters all look as though they are intended for spins offs, we get so much detail, but the essence of romance is the couple meeting and falling in love. Not knowing her for 4 years and marrying her to protect her virtue, then losing her on the battle field and forgetting she ever existed until she turns up again. There is no sensuality or joy in this book and the hero and heroine are both spineless.

From Decent to Bad

I found the first half of Grave's book enjoying and convincing in using scientific analysis to make his point that race doesn't really exist in humans. He then takes that premise and goes nowhere with it while describing the ills of the myth. The scientific part of his reasoning wanes as he goes more and more into the socio-political aspects of our society.Credibility turned to incredibility as his pick and choose logic and statistics became more prevalent. He complains that before present day affirmative action, whites had it, but it was called something else and criticizes it. Fine, but he then goes on to support affirmative action. After convincing me that race is a myth, he himself subsequently claims that churches are "racially segregated". I would have appreciated more on solutions than beratement of well known inequalities.But who is to say, it may be that the 4 enlightning statements that I got out of the entire last half of the book may end up being worthwhile.

i only gave this book 5 stars because i could not give it more. i went to a reading of one of the writers and soon went on to read the rest. it has a good mix of voices, but by far the best writer is Heidi Shayla and her story "The Coffin Builder's Romance", it is a beautiful story of quilts, boxes, and of course, coffins. it is my all time favorite anthology, and i would definetly recomend it.

Not Enchanted

Worked ok for first couple of weeks. I think i am going to have to return it. That positioning sensor is very difficult to get just right. I'm disapointed, I delibertly shopped for Omron because I have other Omron products and they work just fine.Zondra Brownlee

Great product! Lousy Price!

Amazon should be ashamed for selling this excellent product for such an outrageous price. I assumed I was ordering a dozen, but instead received a single, lonely ball in a huge box.Pros: No complaints about the quality of the product.Cons: $37 for one ball?????? I returned the ONE BALL and bought one dozen from another vendor for $35.

Musical nostalgia

This is a lovely way to voyage down memory lane in brief snippets from many wonderful films. If you can't afford to have all of their movies in your library, what better way to enjoy the elegance of Fred Astaire or the athleticism of Gene Kelly; or to tune in to Katheryn Grayson or Judy Garland or so many fine performers. I had seen the first two of these films, but I really love having the whole collection, and I'm sure I'll be enjoying all of these discs many times over!

Pretty Pictures, but not a very useful tool

As with other reviewers, this isn't for someone that has been playing long enough to have a char in thier 50's. You won't be blind to zone layout, but it doesn't help you get to a specfic location because you can't really tell WHERE that location is.Buy if for looks, but if you need maps that are worth using in game, just print them from the internet.

Incomplete and mis-leading account.

As a veteran of the Persian Gulf Crisis assigned to the 1st Armored Division I was to say the least disappointed with a book that is more fiction and rumor than fact. The account of what went on in my helicopter on a Special Foces extraction mission amazed me in its inaccuracy and fill in the blank yellow jounalism since I was the pilot in command and was never interviewed by this supposedly accurate historian. I can only surmise that Mr. Carhart got around this by butchering the spelling of my name. I belive that the author used this technique in the whole book and it should be classified as fiction and sold with subscriptions to the National Enquirer. CW3 Robert A. Caprara

Do not waste your money

I bought the PUR 2-Stage Vertical White Faucet Mount FM-3333B about 2 months ago. It was easy to install and worked right away. However, that didn't last long. The amount of water coming out of the filtered side slowed down quite rapidly. Barely two months after installing it, there is hardly any water coming out. The filter has an indicator that is supposed to flash green when the filter cartridge is good, and changes color to orange or red when it's time to change it. Mine didn't even get to that point and it stopped working. I never ran hot water through the filter which is a warning that came in the instructions. This is just very poorly constructed. This product was cheap, and worked cheaply. Don't waste your money. Make some more research and instead, buy a quality product that will work.

Refreshing encounter with a great mind

Dewey's philosophy is hard for some people to get into, or take seriously, because his whole body of concerns and ideas are present behind every sentence-- so, even though his language is plain-spoken, it is "saturated with meaning," to use one of his phrases. So it takes real work, and he doesn't always succeed in keeping the foreground clear, while remembering the background. It's DOING philosophy, rather than merely writing ABOUT it. This book is a great example -- what does philosophy do for us, how does it contribute when it is woven into the other enterprises of life, and what ideas in philosophy stand it the way of its making a living contribution. The book is full of dramatic, and even radical thinking, but in quiet, reflective language that requires relaxed, persistent attention.

Textless photo essay, for Route 66 completists only

This slim volume isn't really a book. It's a totally textless (not even captions) photo gallery taken by Mr. Baker along Route 66. In addition to the "roadside" images of motels, travelers and scenery one might expect in a Route 66 photo essay, there are several pointless photos of images on TV screens, and at least two too many shots of roadkill. This book is no substitute for driving the highway -- or even for looking over the photo album of a friend who's driven Route 66.

not great kids book

My boys (ages 10, 9, 7, 5) and I found this book to be dull. We love history, but this one was lacking. It also had several instances of profanity which was surprising to me for a book that I thought was aimed at kids.

Wonderful Product! A Life-Saver!!!

I really love this product! I wanted to find something to keep the litter box odors down since I have 4 cats and they do not use hooded litter boxes. I decided to try this product and I'm glad I did. I use a large regular plastic litter pan, put a regular bag liner on it, and place the wonderbox inside as a hard liner. It is much easier to scoop the clumps off the side (they don't stick like they do to the plastic pan or liner by itself). Also, I do not have to worry about ripping the plastic liner with the scooper. The litter box odors have decreased 99% since using the Wonderbox and my cats don't even notice it is there. The best part is when I want to totally clean the litter box, I just take the plastic liner and wonder box out and replace. No scrubbing the dirty pan!! The price may seem a bit steep, but it is worth it since each liner lasts a month. Try this product and you will be glad you did!

Not 100% cotton

I thought "batiste" meant thin cotton, but this nightgown is cotton/poly and stiffer and less soft than I'd hoped. Still the fit is nice, and it's pretty, and it was certainly inexpensive! So all in all, I'm happy....

Father on Fire

If you've ever wondered what early Rollins spoken word is like, this is a good place to start.More like poetry, the first part of this release is Rollins in rare form. Raw, brutal and funny -- it's easy to see why he rubs some people the wrong way.The instrumental pieces on the release are standard Black Flag, only not as frantic. It's like all the fire had been taken out of the band, but it somehow fits the overall package.This is definitely not the best Black Flag release, and may only be for completists, but it is worth listening to if only to get a taste of early Rollins.

Learning to Count to Five

The Sesame Street, People in My Family, A golden Shape Book, is great for toddlers. The text counts up to five three times, first with family members, then with monsters(the Sesame Street kind), and then with fingers on each hand. There are lots of things to count in the pictures too, balloons, hats, spools of ribbon and more.

Grace in full voice

The music here is sometimes draggy and repetitive. The arrangements are overwrought in high prog-rock style. The lyrics don't quite make sense. And none of that matters one bit.This is Grace Slick at the peak of her vocal achievement. She has reached the vocal power that her Jefferson Airplane work only hinted at, and she is not the sad shell of her former self that is heard on the later Starship albums. Her singing ranks up with the great female forces of nature. That's enough to make this album a must-have.

Great Product

I really like these headphones.Pros: Good base as well as execelent trebble response, lightweight, comfortable for several hours and so far durableCons: They do not fold (well the ear pads fold sideways to keep from breaking the speakers when stored), the plug that goes into the player comes out striaght up and does not bend at a 90 degree. This can be annoying when working out or walking as the cord sticks into your side if placed on your belt.I would have given these 5 stars excecpt for the plug's poor design.

Don't Bother!

I bought this for my elderly mother who lives in assisted living because she and her friends have trouble shuflingcards. The first one I bought didn't work at all so I returned it and received a replacement. The replacement broke after just two days. This product is cheap and I would not bother purchasing it. I will say that Amazon made the returns and refund back to my account easy. That was the only positive.

Should be the 100 sales questions

Although redundancy helps you remember the point, the title is misleading. It is more like 100 questions and 3 or more ways to ask the same question. (maybe I'm being unfair....it may be 101, but it may only be 98 as well).Best for the salesperson who is in a slump, a s it's a nice refresher. May not be helpful to a newbie, who needs more confidence than robotics.

Can't figure it out

I moved into a cubicle that already has a 3M C-71 desk drawer organizer in the drawer. I cannot, for the life of me, figure out how the tape dispenser works. It says to refill with Scotch brand 810 Magic Tape, and I understand that that tape comes with two different core sizes (1" and 3"), however, even with the 1" core tape, the snap-on lid won't snap closed and then the drawer can't close. Aside from that, it's an okay organizer, but I just can't figure out to use the tape dispenser.

a bit dissappointed

As our system runs on propane we have utilized space heaters over the years to work in unicen in order to save a little on the process and money spent on refilling our propane tank, i decided this year to spend a little more and buy a better or more diverse space heater, the bionaire looked and read to be a decent buy for the qualities, however i feel that saving the money and going with a regular unit for less money, reasons: the unit comes on and off constantly in order to maintain the exact temperature,a bit annoying when trying to rest, cannot change. The high low setting is indistinguishable, and just one month in and the unit seems loose in pivot and makes clatter sounds when shutting down like the fan or motor have bad bearings or setup, as well switches click when coming on and going off unnecessarily noisy. Likes: removable filter for cleaning, ionization, and no bright lights except when programing.

Not even remotely professional grade.

I'm a wedding photographer. Picked up an additional D700 to go along with my other D700 & primes. Figured I would give a mid-zoom a shot. Well I did and Amazon just received my return. This lens was TERRIBLE!!!!!!!! The auto focus was the SLOWEST I have ever experienced on ANY lens. The image quality & bokeh were nice, if you could get it focus on the point you wanted. I had to make a +20 adjustment in my camera just to get the focus on point. I refused to even bring this lens with me to a wedding for fear of missing every shot. I have since picked up the Nikon (Nikkor) 24-70 f/2.8 as my mid zoom and THAT LENS is SPECTACULAR! Highly recommend no one waste their time on this lens unless your shooting still subjects in a laid back environment.

Life, as viewed through an amber colored bottle...

This is an incredibly hard edged, raw collection of poems from an obviously difficult time in Mr. Easton's life. Even through the haze of alcohol and/or drugs, he still felt the pull of the written and spoken word, and was able to project that life to us in an eloquent, albiet blunt, way. I truly hope to see more poems from Mr. Easton, this time from a perhaps more sober and introspective view. My favorites are Poem 37, Pictures, Tantalus and Love Letter. Bravo, Mr. Easton, and thank you.(A word of warning - the rawness and crude language of many of the poems are not for everyone, please keep that in mind. Even still, it's a great book of poetry and may remind many of their youthful party days).

Plain presentation but excellent content

This authors books are generally very drab in appearance. Having said that the author is one of the premier experts on all sorts of guitars -not just the strat. There is a huge wealth of detail in this book and its a must have for the strat lover. Compared to this author, Tony Bacon pumps out glossy and superficial books by the absolute bucket load, and I know because I own most of them! And Bacons books are cool in their own way. This book is not fancy, but its 100% solid and authentic. The author of this Hal Leonard title is an electric guitar scholar, as it were, and dwarfs most other writers in this area. Buy it and be thankful. Buy it used, and be even happier.Also: this book does not cover strat developments for the past 10 years. Thats not a flaw in the book; its an old title. But what this book DOES cover it handles with skill and ease and depth.

My copy is orange with highlighted phrases.

Forever, I've had the habit of highlighting poignant phrases in whatever I read. Now, after reading Feather in the Wind, my copy is practically orange with highlights. This book is chock full of interesting and profound, unusual and touching literary jewels. For instance, on page 139, "He screamed. It was a cry more wild, more mournful and lonesome than that of any wolf, and it pierced the night air and roamed the dark countryside in unrequited pursuit of an answering call." Doesn't that grab you?Author J.D.H. Duncan definitely has a way with words and expressions that sets him apart. This romance novel provokes both tears and laughter as it takes you through the incredible trials and tribulations of an ordinary man living an extraordinary life of pain and love all mixed up with humor and hope and lessons in life. Just read the book, and don't forget your highlighter pencil!

Magical !

This series has brought me back to episodic television. No computers solving all the cases, no women swooning over the leading man. On the contrary, we have a lovable but not likable guy that seems crippled by fear of everything. We have detection being done by a detective, what a concept. I like these early episodes that show Sharona having to get Monk to focus on the case, not his other obsessions, which are many. This is old fashioned, but entertaining. I appreciate the way the dics are set up and you can choose to watch all episodes continually, or pick a selection.

Cheaply made, just pass on this one.

Swim Ways Pool Lounge:Purchased this locally, brought it home, and immediately saw the poor quality. The arms are HOLLOW, can't support a 140 pound person level. Your feet wind up in the air much higher than the rest of you. If you sit too far back (as you should) there is a tendency to flip it over. Had they used solid arms instead of the hollowed arms, MAYBE it would work properly. In addition, the metal support system doesn't go all the way around. It is only two U shaped tubes that don't meet at the other end of the other U shape tubing. The body support is very flimsy and doesn't stay in place.I would not recommend this to ANYONE at any price. It doesn't perform what it was intended for. You will be disappointed.I returned mine the very next morning.Santa Cruz Lounge

Can split at seams

This is a nice seat -- so comfy my 18-mo-old can use and stable enough that the 3yo also loves it. The handles offer added security for early potty use. We bought two of these to have on eat each toilet. However, the less-used one recently split at the seams! Sadly it's past the return date.The two-piece design is terrific for trapping urine in the little grooves and also the cushy ring often slips off when this is hung up in the bathroom since you have to hang it by one of the little handles.My parents bought theMommy's Helper Contoured Cushie Tushie Potty Seatand I think it's much comfier, much easier to clean AND it's only $10. Oh, and it also has a hook that makes it super easy for the child to hang it up after use. I'd recommend that one instead.

INFORMATIVE, GOOD READING

This is a text book with many fine b&w photographs illustrating its subject. The book explains the development of the schooner type boat from the eariest settlements in America to its final usage in the 20th century as a common carrier on the Cheasapeake Bay and the high seas. You also learn of some of the people that sailed on these craft, how they were used in time of war and how a few (too few) have survived and are being sailed with passangers today. Anyone interested in wooden boats, sailing or the maritine history of the Chesapeake and the Eastern United States will enjoy this book. It is well researched and well written.

I rarely give negative reviews, almost NEVER! This is the most worthless junk I have ever bought. Stay away from Fisher Price in general. Everything they sell is either dangerous or cheaply made.

OK Product...for a while

When I first received this locator it worked fine. You can use its directionality to find where the source is. However, after a few months the button required more pressure to work. Then it later required mashing it very hard and then it wouldn't always work. Eventually I opened it up to find the battery would not make contact unless it the entire circuit board was out of the case and the battery was slid partially out of the holder, but the case wouldn't allow it to stay in that position. ONE of two batteries, I think. It's been a while.Anyway, it works when it wants to.

Patronising drivel

A very patronising look at Rebecca, a young Maori woman in the 1960's and what she does with her day. Black and white photos, mostly photos with not much text. Not a book you'd use to gain a proper understanding of Maori people and customs in the 60's.Rebecca for example wears a trendy 60's beehive, the people go to dances in the hall, and a white wedding -this book is more like a European look at the 1960's in New Zealand with Maori playing role models for the photos. Worst is the captions with the photos, here are some examples:-Yes, Maoris are happy people-Who cares about fancy clothes, we still have lots of fun-You find Maoris everywhere... in workshops, driving trains, in dairy factories...Oh please!Do yourself a favour and throw this book in the fire
